I think what you want to use is ftplib something like this:
import ftplib
ftp = ftplib.FTP("ftp.site.com")
ftp.login("username", "password")
#for text files
filename ="somefile.txt"
ftp.storlines("STOR " + filename, open(filename))
#for binary
filename ="somefile.exe"
ftp.storbinary("STOR " + filename, open(filename, "rb"), 1024)
