It looks like you missed out step 4 from the install instructions at

  http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/install/

"""

On Unix-like systems, create a symbolic link to the file
django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py in a directory on your system
path, such as /usr/local/bin. For example:

ln -s `pwd`/django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py /usr/local/bin

This simply lets you type django-admin.py from within any directory,
rather than having to qualify the command with the full path to the file.

On Windows systems, the same result can be achieved by copying the file
django-trunk/django/bin/django-admin.py to somewhere on your system
path, for example C:\Python24\Scripts.
