ChemPy has a an SDF class for processing SD files.  Here's an example of
using it to answer your question.

# Python code for reading an SDF file with
# identifier in first line of the MOL record

from pymol import cmd
from chempy.sdf import SDF
from string import join,strip

isdf = SDF("input.sdf")
while 1:
        r = isdf.read()
        if not r: break
        mol = r.get('MOL')
        ident = strip(mol[0])
        cmd.read_molstr(join(mol,''),ident)
isdf.close()

# Python code for reading an SD file with
# identifier as separate SD field 'MOLID' 

from pymol import cmd
from chempy.sdf import SDF
from string import join

isdf = SDF("input.sdf")
while 1:
        r = isdf.read()
        if not r: break
        mol = r.get('MOL')
        ident = r.get_single('MOLID')
        cmd.read_molstr(join(mol,''),ident)
isdf.close()
