Just right a simple python function.... With random number generation... And call it where you want to use it

I wonder why?

If I really had to do that I would adjust the relevant sequence manually
via PGAdmin.

Otherwise, I would have to invent a single use method which only
operates if the id is 1 on creation of a model instance. That method
would have to generate the random number and execute raw SQL to update
the sequence and then update the id to match.

Another way might be to continuously create and delete records until the
id was the same as your random number.

Good luck

you could do that in the database with a mysql statement.

ALTER TABLE tbl AUTO_INCREMENT = 7777;
