Django request URL gets appended

Question

i visit admin interface and try to add support user in django.its a form with user name and email. the form data is posted successfully. after successful post request i have to redirect to 127.0.0.1:8000/admin/auth/user/. however at 127.0.0.1:8000/add_support_user if user exists already,url is changed like this 127.0.0.1:8000/add_support_user/add_support_user and again i make request if user already exists its like this 127.0.0.1:8000/add_support_user/add_support_user/add_support_user(gets appended every time) support_User_form and when new user is created url is changed like this 127.0.0.1:8000/add_support_user/add_support_user so it shows 500 error page that '127.0.0.1:8000/add_support_user/add_support_user' doesnt exists error_page. what mistake am i making here?

URLS.PY

 url(r"^add_support_user/", AddSupportUserView.as_view(), name = 'support_user'),

VIEWS.PY

class AddSupportUserView(CsrfExemptMixin, View):
def get(self, request):
    form_class = AddSupportUserForm

    return render(request, 'add_support_user.html', {
        'form': form_class,
    })

def post(self, request):
    form_class = AddSupportUserForm

    username = request.POST.get('username')
    email = request.POST.get('email')
    try:
        user_obj = User.objects.get(username=username)
        return render(request, 'add_support_user.html', {'errors': 'User already exits', 'form': form_class})
    except User.DoesNotExist:
        user_obj = User.objects.create_user(username=username, email=email, is_staff=True,
                                            is_superuser=False)
        user_obj.set_password(email)
        user_obj.save()
    group_obj = Group.objects.get(name='support_group')
    user_obj.groups.add(group_obj)
    return HttpResponseRedirect('/admin/auth/user/')
