You mean the mapping of Python attribute names to C struct members?
That's in sliceobject.c:
static PyMemberDef slice_members[] = {
{"start", T_OBJECT, offsetof(PySliceObject, start), READONLY},
{"stop", T_OBJECT, offsetof(PySliceObject, stop), READONLY},
{"step", T_OBJECT, offsetof(PySliceObject, step), READONLY},
{0}
};
