Are you already familiar with the MEME tool? That would certainly
be important here... see http://meme.sdsc.edu/

It might help if you went into a little more detail. Are you working
with nucleotides or proteins? Have you already identified a motif
"by eye" for which you want to construct a model?

Also note that Bio.MEME and Bio.AligneAce are being phased
out in favour of Bio.Motif, so if you are writing new code you
should start with Bio.Motif rather than Bio.MEME. You'll need
Biopython 1.50 for this. Try this for some basic help:

>>> from Bio import Motif
>>> help(Motif)

Or read the docstrings online here:
