You should use either

   subprocess.Popen(["ls", "-l"])
or   

   subprocess.Popen("ls -l")

The argument to the first is a two element list.   
The argument to the second is a string.  

You used "ls -l" as the process to run, thus 
" OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory"

See the subprocess documentation.
