Are you sure the problem is with Python/Mapscript and not with the image
and/or mapfile?

Try displaying the mapfile with the CGI version of MapServer to check
it.

Do you have STATUS DEFAULT instead of STATUS ON in the raster layer?

Do you have the world file for your TIFF file?

Is the image in 8 bit color? (if it's colored)

The code looks right, so the problem probably is one of the above

Oh, and BTW what do you mean by it's not working?

You get a Python error? 

blies.png is blank?

blies.png has only the vector layers?
