You can do it this way:

class Test(db.Model):
  pass

class TestHandler(webapp.RequestHandler):
  def get(self):
    test = Test()
    # self.response.out.write(test.key())
    # don't do that, it will raise a NotSavedError
    test.put()
    self.response.out.write(test.key())
    # after put(), it works fine. But maybe you need a try...except
