Small Alarm Sound Under the Bonnet

I was driving and there was a beeping noise coming from underneath the bonnet? I pulled over and restarted, and it went away.

Any idea what this is?

How sure are you that it was actually eminating from under the bonnet ? Could it have been coming from another area like the fire wall ?
