I see at several options:
* install `youtoube_dl` where Python looks for it
(you can print `sys.path` to find out all the places
normally checked for importable modules)
* put a (symbolic) link to `youtoube_dl` at a place
where Python looks for modules
* use Pythons' `.pth' feature to tell Python additional
places where to look for modules.
You can place `.pth` files where Python looks for modules
to be imported
