Use virtual env for working with python and Django projects, you can install it from this site. After activating the virtual env, install Django and run it:

python -m pip install Django
django-admin startproject mysite

Go to the site directory and run the app:

py manage.py run server.

From here you can read the official docs and follow the tutorial.

I had the same problem in Arch. The way to fix it is to install the package as a root sudo pip install django.
