No distributions at all found for setup.py

I'm having an issue with pip install. I am trying to download SQLAlchemy and download the gz file from here. However, when I type pip install setup.py in the Command Prompt, I get:

Downloading/unpacking setup.py 
Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement setup.py
Cleaning up..
No distributions at all found for setup.py

I've been facing a similar problem with pip when trying to download other libraries and this started occurring a day after I downloaded Python 3.4, when I was running Python 2.7 previously. I had a look at this and tried using pip install --pre library_name. However, this doesn't seem to working either and I get a similar message to the one above.

Thank You

You are using wrong command. Please do

pip install SQLAlchemy

Or:

python setup.py install  # If you want to manually extract the package for installation for some reason, but this is not required with pip
