The Terravision bus might work, although I don't know how early the earliest one is. If that doesn't look like a good bet, I'd recommend a cab. It's better than missing the flight, although it's not cheap.

As per WT, I'd recommend the Terravision if you want to save money as the tickets are aroudn Euro6-8 for a one way trip. They operate the service to suit the departures/arrivals of airlines at Ciampino (there's also a service for Fiumicino) so you could alay your concerns and go to their office at Rome Termini station the day before travel and even pre-purchase your ticket once you've checked that the bus service leaves in time for you to reach Ciampino to check in - it should be scheduled to leave at least two hours before your flight leaves, but in the height of the day it leaves 3 hours before scheduled flights. The benefit of leaving that early in the morning is that traffic shouldn't be a problem. The Terravision bus leaves/arrives on the via Masala side of Termini from just near the cafe.
Just as a back-up, a taxi at that time of day will cost around Euro35.
