If you are getting "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'" error then it means either requests module is not installed or if it is installed then python is not able to find it. If it is not installed then you can easily install by using python3 -m pip install requests command as shown below. Here you can notice that for this command to work you need to have python3 installed in your Server. If you don't have python3 installed in your Server then you can install it by using yum install python3 -y command. Now if you run the python program again you won't see "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'" error.

Other way that you can use to install requests module is through pip3.6 tool. You can use simply use pip3.6 install requests command to install requests module in your Server. You don't require yum tool here. Here you only need to make sure that you have pip3.6 tool available as per the python version that you are going to use. Since here we are using python3 so we need to use pip3.6 to install modules for this version. If you don't have this pip version installed then you can install it by using yum install python3-pip -y command.
