I am trying to set my render to be alpha. i have the following code

scene = bpy.context.scene
scene.render.alpha_mode = 'TRANSPARENT' 
bpy.context.scene.color_mode = 'RGBA'

where of the two first lines works fine, but im getting an error in the last one. so how do i set the color_mode to RGBA, instead of RGB, using python script?

To set the color mode to RGBA for the current scene, use:

 bpy.context.scene.render.image_settings.color_mode ='RGBA'

color_mode is a member ImageFormatSettings, which is in turn a member of RenderSettings. The render settings of a scene are accessible via Scene.render.

See here for an explanation how to find out the access path:
Blender/Python API Reference Usage: examples of how to use the API reference docs
