WebScraping with Python: Request import error

I am getting started to the web scraping "world". This is my code:

import urllib
import urllib.request
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup

theurl = "https://twitter.com/realdonaldtrump";
thepage = urllib.request.urlopen(theurl)
soup = BeautifulSoup(thepage,"html.parser")

print (soup.title)

When I try to run the code I have the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/ACC/PycharmProjects/untitled/venv/imp.py", line 2, in <module>
    import urllib.request
ImportError: No module named request

Process finished with exit code 1

I've already went to the project interpreter on settings and installed requests, and I've already did pip install requests on terminal.

If you are using Python3 try using "requests" instead

pip3 install requests

Here is how I solve it ImportError: No module named requests
