You could try python virtual environments, which is probably good practice even if you have admin rights. Here is a good guide to python virtual environments: http://docs.python-guide.org/en/latest/dev/virtualenvs/

But you need to get *some* version of Python installed to use `virtualenv` at all, surely? – jonrsharpe Aug 07 '15 at 17:04
Indeed you need to install in you home directory. The key is the `--prefix` argument during the configuration. See a SO post about this here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/622744/unable-to-install-python-without-sudo-access – cr1msonB1ade Aug 07 '15 at 17:07

You can try downloading the .zip from the python website https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-371/ under files.

Although you won't find IDLE as a part of this python by default. You can use any other IDE or just cmd.

Download msi file for particular version and mention the target directory name and run below command in Download folder(where msi placed)

msiexec /a python-2.7.10.msi /qb TARGETDIR=D:\python27

inside D:\python27 we got python path and application
