One might consider using MessagePack which is endorsed by redis.

import msgpack

data = {
    'one': 'one',
    'two': 2,
    'three': [1, 2, 3]
}

await redis.set('my-key', msgpack.packb(data))
val = await redis.get('my-key')
print(msgpack.unpackb(val))

# {'one': 'one', 'two': 2, 'three': [1, 2, 3]}

Using msgpack-python and aioredis
