If you bond has been denied at your arraignment, then you can always file an emergency bond motion or writ of habeaus, or you can attempt to request bond and or a bond reduction at the pre-trial or preliminary examination. You can actually request a bond reduction or bond hearing at any stage of a criminal process so long as the Judge will allow it.
