I'll use "Record" for the name here, since class names are usually
capitalized where I come from.


You might simply do something like:
     class Record: pass

then you can:
     r = Record()
     r.a = 23
     ...

To get fancier:

     class Record:
         def __init__(self, **keywordargs):
             self.__dict__.update(keywordargs)
         def __repr__(self):
             return '%s(%s)' % (self.__class__.__name__,
                                ','.join(['%s=%r' % keyval for keyval
                                          in self.__dict__.items()]))


This works as the first one, prints nicely,
and allows initializations like:
     r = Record(x=3, y=4.5, z=3+4j, name="O'Hara")
