  You will need to use the "exec" module:

DEFAULT	Acct-Status-Type == "Start"
	Tmp-String-0 = "%{exec:/etc/freeradius/SCRIPT/userlogin.py}"

  That will also cause the script to execute immediately.  Or, you can
use "unlang":

accounting {
	...


	if (Acct-Status-Type == Start) {
		update reply {
			Tmp-String-0 = "%{exec:/etc/freeradius/SCRIPT/userlogin.py}"
		}
	
	}
}
