Using a ParagraphStyle might actually be better so i figured i'd add it to this super old answer.

Found this in their changelog after seeing @memyself's answer.

  * `KeepWithNext` improved:
    Paragraph styles have long had an attribute keepWithNext, but this was 
    buggy when set to True. We believe this is fixed now. keepWithNext is important 
    for widows and orphans control; you typically set it to True on headings, to 
    ensure at least one paragraph appears after the heading and that you don't get 
    headings alone at the bottom of a column. 

header = ParagraphStyle(name='Heading1', parent=normal, fontSize=14, leading=19,
                        spaceAfter=6, keepWithNext=1)
