I think you have got the wrong idea.  Lots of Python programmers use
SQLAlchemy but there is no 'you should use this' about it.  In my
corner of the world, everybody uses SQL.  The great buring questions
are 'MySQL vs PostgreSQL?' and 'Should you ever use SQLite?'
The people who have tried SQLAlchemy really didn't like it, and of course
the people who haven't tried it do what their friends do, as usual.

If you already know SQL get yourself a MySQL server, a SQLite or PostGreSQL
server, depending on what is more like what you are used to.  There are
tons of online tutorials on how to use these.  And if you already know SQL
things will be pretty straight forward for you.
