You can place your python script anywhere you wish in the ZMI -- e.g. via the Plone interface, add a folder named "Scripts", and via the ZMI add a Python Script to that folder.  Then in your PloneFormGen form, go to the Edit view and click on "Overrides".  Enter either redirect or traverse to the path where your Python script resides.  Use "traverse" if you wish to pass form values to your Python script.

For clarification, when you go to the Edit view of your form and click on the Overrides tab,you will add your "redirect" or "traverse" TAL statement in the Custom Success Options field.
