The following code should work for you.

import requests
url = "neptune_url:8182/sparql"
query = "CLEAR GRAPH IRIref"
headers = {"content-type": "application/sparql-update"}
r = requests.post(url, data=query, headers=headers)

Note that the specification requires this to be a POST and have specific content type headers set. Neptune is fully SPARQL 1.1 compliant, so the relevant areas in the specification here are https://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-protocol/#update-operation and https://www.w3.org/TR/sparql11-update/#clear.
