Install the package python3:
(with root privilege):
apt-get update
apt-get install python3
If you have installed Debian Stable, then the above will give you python 3.2.3 . It's possible that 3.3 is in the backports repository, but I haven't checked that.

If you didn't configure an internet connection when you installed Debian, then when you run the commands I mentioned you will be asked to insert the original installation CD (or DVD). What I don't know is whether python3 is on the installation CD.
