There was a command to center the SDL window, but in a recent version of
Pygame this command just didn't work. The window would appear in a random
place, often hanging over the screen's edge so that the program couldn't be
properly used until the window is moved. I'm not sure whether the problem's
been fixed yet.

I think you need to "import os" and then set an environment flag
("os.setenv"?), and that the flag is "SDL_VIDEO_CENTER", in quotes.
