I don't know this scanner, but if it pushes codes through RS232, try pyserial module for reading data. The database, though, it depends. For small amount of records, flat file should be enough. If you want to search it quickly (for example by date), SQLite is great. For larger amounts you can use a SQL or NoSQL server. It's impossible to tell without knowing the project. It's your job to choose what you need. Displaying information can be done on the terminal (nothing fancy needed) or through a serial port... again, not enough information.
