Taking you extremely literally:
from time import time
start = time()
run_section_here()
end = time()
runtime = end-start

Assuming you're doing this in order to optimize:
http://docs.python.org/library/profile.html
Or in particularly simple cases:
http://docs.python.org/library/timeit.html

Cheers,
Chris
