Are you using 3.4 or greater? – kezzos Jun 10 '15 at 20:23

can you show us how you set up the virtualenv, activate it and try to run pip from within it? – Jörn Hees Jun 10 '15 at 20:45

Using a virtual environment with Python 3.4 provides helpful information about dealing with Python 3.x and virtualenv/pyevn.
Find instruction about how to install pip manually on pip.pypa.io.

The Red Hat yum package of Python 3.4 is broken, with pip missing. Other Python 3.4+ distributions might have the same problem.
When you create a virtual environment with:
pyvenv-3.4 py3
source py3/bin/activate
the environment should include pip automatically (in the environment/bin directory, not globally). If it does not, try downloading the pip and setuptools wheels manually as described in https://stackoverflow.com/a/33767179/948866. It's a little more work up front than installing pip the old way, but it makes pyvenv work properly.
