The Quick Answer: yes you will need a shorter belt
The Truth: It depends on how MUCH smaller the new pulley is.... assuming it is a serpentine-style belt (aka unibelt), there will be a spring loaded tentioner, which will take up a certain amount of slack, but not more than a few cm...

How many times will a 5 cm pulley turn when attached to a 10 cm pulley?
In relation to the 10 cm pulley a 5 cm pulley has half the circumference thus will rotate on the same line or belt twice as often. circumference = 2 x pi x radius or pi x diameter, when comparing 2 circumferences the value of pi is immaterial. Thus 10cm/5cm = 2
How pulleys are used in your daily lives?
A pulley is just a wheel with a groove to hold a belt ,rope or chain. Your car likely has pulleys to run the radiator fan , the water pump , the air conditioner and the power steering.

Bicycles has a pulley to allow the pedal crank shaft to turn the drive wheel.

Formula to calculate v-belt length?
The answer is: L = pi x (D + d)/2 + 2 x ( C x Cos(a) + a x (D-d)/2) where a = arcsin(D-d)/(2 x C) in radians. Where C is the center distance, D is the large pulley diameter, and d is the small pulley diameter.
