python 3.9.0 don't seem to support Apple Silicon.
according to release note, python support Apple Silicon from 3.9.1.

3.9.1 is the first version of Python to support macOS 11 Big Sur. With Xcode 11 and later it is now possible to build “Universal 2” binaries which work on Apple Silicon.

I installed 3.9.4 on my MacBook pro with m1 chip using pyenv 1.2.26 and it worked fine.
Universal2 binaries are available from 3.9.1 onwards.

There are no universal binaries. I can't install any Python version with pyenv on MacBook Pro M1Max. Homebrew has no this problem (it loads a binary package). Pyenv fails on M1 and M1Max chip.

CPython supports Arm64 since 3.8.10 and 3.9.1.

So this is normal behavior.
