Hello Alessio,
this funciontion is only for the 3.8 kernel. The page says:
https://learn.adafruit.com/setting-up-io-python-library-on-beaglebone-black/installation-on-ubuntu
"The most important part here is that you are using a Linux distribution
with the 3.8 kernel. This kernel version made some fairly significant
changes with how GPIO, PWM and ADC are accessed."
If you want to use kernel 3.14, this post can help you:

I detect this error with all the uarts:
*RuntimeError: Unable to export UART channel.*
