Better suited for Stackoverflow or one of its subsites like Unix Admin. However, as the solution is simple (not trivial) here's an answer: Compile it into your home, preferably some sub-directory wher you can manage software. 

cd $HOME/your/software/dir
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.7.4/Python-3.7.4.tgz
tar xf Python-3.7.4.tgz
cd NEWPYTHON_DIR
./configure
make

There will be a new bin path, you can add it to $PATH

PATH=$HOME/your/software/dir/NEWPYTHON_DIR/bin:$PATH

that should do the trick
