It FTBFS here:
|    dh_auto_clean -O--buildsystem=python_distutils
| Traceback (most recent call last):

|     from Cython.Distutils import build_ext as _build_ext
| ImportError: No module named Cython.Distutils
| dh_auto_clean: python setup.py clean -a returned exit code 1

lintian emits:
W: python-kmod source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.9.3 (current is 3.9.4)
P: python-kmod: no-upstream-changelog

AFAICT you don't need --buildsystem=python_distutils in debian/rules; dh 
will detect it automatically.

Vcs-* fields are supposed to point to VCS with Debian packaging, not to 
the upstream VCS.

License information in debian/copyright doesn't seem to be correct. It 
says the license is GPL-2+, but the source contains the following 
notices: "python-kmod is free software: you can redistribute it and/or 
modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License 
version 2.1"

The watch file doesn't work:
| $ uscan --report --verbose
| -- Scanning for watchfiles in .
| -- Found watchfile in ./python-kmod-0.9/debian
| -- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
|    http://githubredir.debian.net/github/agrover/python-kmod/v(.*).tar.gz
| uscan warning: In watchfile debian/watch, reading webpage
|   http://githubredir.debian.net/github/agrover/python-kmod/ failed: 500 Internal Server Error
| -- Scan finished

The package needs Python 2.6 or later, so please declare it in the 
X-Python-Version header (see Python Policy §2.3).

Could you get your package description reviewed by 
debian-l10n-english@lists.d.o?
