Well, here's what jumps to mind:

PySQLite -- SQL based relational
Metakit -- Direct API based relational, the core library is *very* 
widely used.
MkSQL -- Less-heavily-used SQL implementation on top of Metakit
Gadfly -- SQL based IIRC, never actually used it myself, is now 
distributed with Zope 3 IIRC
KirbyBase -- Never used it, but apparently embeddable

AnyDBM -- e.g. BSDDB, very low-level string:value on-disk-dictionary 
mechanisms
mxBeeBase -- low level mechanism for creating databases

Also, as a general rule, you can answer these kinds of questions by 
browsing Parnassus', which is quite a useful little resource.

Have fun,
