You'd define a method named "main", just like with "test".
You would then call it by doing:
    my_class().main()

my_lib.py:
class ParentClass(object):
    def __init__(self, name):
        self.name = name
        self.species = "Human"

test.py:
from my_lib import ParentClass

class MyClass(ParentClass):
    def __init__(self, name):
        super(MyClass, self).__init__(name + " Jones")
    def print_name(self):
        print "My name is", self.name
        print "And I am a", self.species

MyClass("Bob").print_name()


Note that classes are conventionally named using CamelCaseLikeThis
instead of underscore_separated_words.
