The bpy module is a built-in part of blender that gives python scripts access to the data and operators used in blender. This module is available to scripts run within blender itself, which includes a python interpreter. The bpy module isn't normally available to import from a normal python command, but there is limited support to compile a blender module.

To use the bpy module you can start blender and use the built in python console or you can type in or open a script in the text editor which has a run script button available. Particularly if you run scripts from the text editor you will want access to a console to get error reports.
