Actually, it will for anywhere with a recent Python 3.x or where the standalone launcher has been installed: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0397/ (cf particularly the section "Python Script Launching") Of course, I don't know if the OP does in fact have the launcher installed, but if they do then the answer is: py.exe. Even if the launcher isn't installed, Windows will happily run a .py file via the file extension association, assuming that this has been selected when installing Python (which it is, by default, ISTR).
