Find user does not working on Python code

Following code is to find specific user("eveadams"). But it does not work.

# Find User
kwargs = {"name": "eveadams"}

try:
    users = service.users.list(**kwargs)
    for user in users:
        print "%s - %s" % (user.realname, user.name)

except: # new user
    print "Cannot find the user"

eveadams is already exist in splunk. But the result is always "Cannot find...".

Can you try this:

kwargs = {"name": "eveadams"}
users = service.users.list(**kwargs)
 try:
     for user in users:
         print "%s - %s" % (user.realname, user.name)
 except: # new user
     print "Cannot find the user"
