[requirement 2]

The two requirements are not the same.
R1: [^0-9_] matches any character except the underscore and the digits
0-9
R2: To match "like \w except for underscore and digits 0-9", find
"negative lookbehind assertion" in the re docs.

I've omitted the ^, $ and (?u) because the above advice is general.

HTH,
