The Binos parted company with McLaren on Saturday after a 4-0 home defeat to Elgin City.
That loss left them second bottom of Scottish League Two.
"No one could have worked harder than Stuart and I wish him every success in the future," said chairman Stuart Brown on the official website.
Former Stirling player McLaren was appointed boss in November 2014 following a spell managing Australian side Brisbane Strikers.
However, he could not save them from relegation, and they finished seventh last season.

Emergency services were called to reports of an incident at Daldowie Crematorium, off the M74, near Uddingston, at about 12:30.
The two men were taken to Wishaw General Hospital for treatment. There is no update on their condition.
Police said inquiries were ongoing and there was no truth in social media speculation about a firearms incident.
Stirling Albion have have appointed Martyn Corrigan as caretaker manager as they search for a replacement for Stuart McLaren.
