Please try py instead. – user9270170
make sure you have added python PATH in system path. – Devang Hingu
just try python manage.py runserver instead of python3. If you have multiple version of python like 2.X or 3.X than you require python3 otherwise python it just cool. – Devang Hingu

For anyone for whom the answer above does not work. You can try this one(For windows only). Find the folder where python 3 installed in your computer. You will see that there is a python.exe. Just copy-paste that file inside that folder once and rename that file as python3.exe. Now all Python commands which starts with python3 .... will work for you in Windows command line. It works because windows installation of Python does not expect commands starting with in "python3 ...." format. But with just doing this you can use all commands starting with "python3" hassle-free. Enjoy! Remember that, this solution considers that you added python 3 path to the system variables of windows system beforehand.
