Put 

(setq org-src-fontify-natively t)

In your ~/.emacs or ~/.emacs.d/init.el file for syntax highlighting. 

To get the 'regular' code editing, move point into a BEGIN_SRC block and type "C-c ' " (Control-C followed by single quote). That will give you your normal python setup in a sub-buffer. Getting Python autocompletion in Emacs is a bit tricky, but there are many options.
