Can't reach IP using Python httplib

I can't connect to anything on my network using the IP address of the host. I can open a browser and connect and I can ping the host just fine. Here is my code:
from httplib import HTTPConnection
addr = 192.168.14.203
conn = HTTPConnection(addr)
conn.request('HEAD', '/')
res = conn.getresponse()
if res.status == 200:
print "ok"
else:
print "problem : the query returned %s because %s" % (res.status, res.reason)
The following error gets returned:
socket.error: [Errno 51] Network is unreachable
If I change the addr var to google.com I get a 200 response. What am I doing wrong?

192.168.14.203 is a private IP address. Are you sure such an address exists on your local network?

You should check the address and your proxy settings.
For making HTTP requests I recommend the requests library. It's much more high-level and user friendly compared to httplib and it makes it easy to set proxies:
import requests
addr = "http://192.168.14.203"
response = requests.get(addr)
# if you need to set a proxy:
response = requests.get(addr, proxies={"http": "...proxy address..."})
# to avoid using any proxy if your system sets one by default
response = requests.get(addr, proxies={"http": None})
