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.

how can I set up my own private hexchat network?
The most popular are UnrealIRCd and InspIRCd and it looks like they will both run on Windows. (I assume you are using Windows)

Ask HN: Private group chat with no registration
UnrealIRCD front-ended by TheLounge web interface that has history would fit what you described, but the setup is not super quick. No registration would be required, TheLounge provides chat persistence. Both are open source. Visitors would not need to be technical and would not need to know IRC commands. Rooms can be deleted by the channel operator. TheLounge is browser based and does not require any additional software.

Darknet exploration group?
Trivial. Set up your favorite IRC server, UnrealIRCd would be fine, then create a tor onion service, but instead of forwarding port 80 (HTTP), you'd forward 6667 (IRC). Done.
