I found Example: Stop or start all services in a folder . It was very useful for the purpose . If you want to start automatically just change some of items in this sample and run in task scheduler of windows .

ArcGIS Server Map Services – Starting and Stopping ArcGIS Server Map Services Using Python

For those that are using ArcGIS 10.0, and interested in using AGSSOM as recommended by D.E. Wright, I've put together the following code. This will stop all services allowing you to perform necessary geodatabase tasks, and then restart previously running services.

import os, subprocess

#Get list of currently running map services
stream = os.popen('D:\GIS\Admin\AGSSOMv10.0\AGSSOM.exe -list')
mapservices = stream.readlines()
lstStarted = []

for item in mapservices:
    itemSplit = item.split(',')
    if len(itemSplit) > 1:
        if itemSplit[1].find("Started.") > -1:
            lstStarted.append(itemSplit[0])

#Shutdown all map services
subprocess.call(['D:\GIS\Admin\AGSSOMv10.0\AGSSOM.exe', '-x', '*all*'])

##...Perfom geodatabase tasks here

#Restart previously running map services
for mapservice in lstStarted:
    subprocess.call(['D:\GIS\Admin\AGSSOMv10.0\AGSSOM.exe', '-s', mapservice])
