A superb idea. Suggestion: buy a new belt and put it on immediately. Keep the (presumably still good) belt that's on the car now as a spare. This prevents you from ending up in the boonies with a brand-new accidentally wrong size belt that now does you no good at all.

By putting on the new belt now, you can find out whether it fits or not (just in case). By keeping the old belt as the spare, you know it will fit (since you just took it off of the car).
