Did you find this in Modules/config.c?

It's a built-in module.
A module is said "built-in" if its initialization function is linked
inside the main program.
When you "import _warnings", python looks inside the list defined in
config.c, and runs the _PyWarnings_Init function it found there.
An extension module resides in a .so, which name is also the name of the module.
Its initialization function must be of the form "init%s"
It's not the case for _warnings. You would have to rename
_PyWarnings_Init to init_warnings...
