You have called your script "gammu.py", so when you write

import gammu
sm = gammu.StateMachine()

inside that script it imports itself and, of course, doesn't find the 
StateMachine class. 

Rename your file to something that doesn't collide with modules you are 
using, don't forget to delete the compiled version gammu.pyc and  you should 
be OK.
