As far as I understand, PHP typically embeds code in HTML
pages. If you want to do that you want something more than
mod_python.

Have a look at http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/moinmoin/WebProgramming
and look closer at the templating systems.

I recently found CherryPy, www.cherrypy.org , and I like that.
