Untested, but try this :

#+name: localize
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :var file="" srcinfo=(org-babel-get-src-block-info)
   (let* ((dir (cdr (assoc :dir (nth 2 srcinfo))))
          (rfile (concat (file-name-as-directory dir) file))
          (lfile (car (last (split-string rfile ":")))))
     (copy-file rfile lfile 1)
     lfile)
#+END_SRC

then use

#+HEADER: :post localize(*this*)

in your python src block.

HTH,

Chuck
