I agree with Just, that you need to fix the #! header to /usr/bin/python 
/usr/bin/python ran my test cgi's just fine when I first installed 10.2:

old: #!/bin/env python
new: #!/usr/bin/python

then fix the print line to use one kind of quote...single or double, but 
not both:

old: print 'hello kevin"
new: print "hello kevin"

If authorities are set right and you are in the same directory as the 
program, run the program by typing "./programname"

Hope this helps.

ps.

For start to finish instructions on a default 10.2 install this might 
work...in a terminal window...

Go to your home directory by typing:

cd ~

Type the following to use pico to make a file:

pico mypgm.py

Copy and paste this bit into the term window running pico:

#!/usr/bin/python
print "hello kevin"

Type ctrl-x, then "y" to save your file (mypgm.py)

To set up authorities of owner rwx, group rx, and everyone rx type:

chmod 755 "mypgm.py" 

Then to run the program try:

./mypgm.py


It should produce a line:
hello kevin
