I have no idea on how to solve this, I've tried to

echo "alias python=/usr/bin/python3" >> ~/.zshrc

And also

brew install python

I'm new on this so I really don't know what I'm doing, if someone could explain why I'm supposed to write those lines on my terminal I'd be very grateful

Try python3 --version in your terminal window, if it returned the version details, then python is installed in your system.

Okay, then what to do next? I am also getting the same error while trying to run a .py file on my vscode ; $zsh: command not found: python$

after updating to macos Monterey 12.6.1 had similar problem.
Before this update, python referred to python2.7 which was removed completely in the latest Monterey versions.
Using following fix:

sudo ln -s /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/python3 /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/python
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/local/bin/python

Result:

python -V
Python 3.9.6
