Looking for: Chat service that isn't web server based
Looks fine for me. Note - you can download DEB file from https://github.com/inspircd/inspircd/releases for Ubuntu and install it .. no point going over compilation stuff or via docker https://hub.docker.com/r/inspircd/inspircd-docker/

Over the internet messages/connection API or service for python
Once you've spun up a server, you'll need some sort of software to relay messages between the clients. In my opinion it's hard to go wrong with IRC here. Inspircd is pretty painless to install and configure.
