If you want list of tables name from current database.

from PyQt4.QtSql import *
    db = QSqlDatabase.addDatabase("QPSQL");
    db.setHostName("localhost");
    db.setDatabaseName("postgres");
    db.setUserName("postgres");
    db.setPassword("postgres");
    db.open();
    names=db.tables( QSql.Tables)
    print names
