It isn't clear to me exactly what you are trying to do, but if you want to include *.py files but exclude folders like something.py this seems to work:

files to include: *.py

files to exclude: *.py/*

Using that you will not get search hits from folder.py/file.py

but you will from anotherFile.py that is not in the folder.py.
