what languages do you know? sqlite has bindings for nearly every language... just pick your favorite.... I prefer using the sqlite3 shell in bash/ash.

FWIW, puppy does not include python by default. Asking a question like that though is just inviting trolls and flame wars; however, if you want it to work in puppy without having to install a bunch of dependencies, then use shell, C, C++ or possibly perl (though Puppy's perl is really cutdown) aside from that, the best language to write in is the one you know best. If it is good enough, people will port it to other languages that they know better if necessary.
