The Database Tools and SQL plugin is available only in PyCharm Professional.
Press CtrlAlt0S to open settings and then select Plugins.

User files are the files that are stored on your machine or any other place you have access to. To work with them in PyCharm, access the directory that contains them in the Project tool window .
You can view, edit, create, and delete the SQL files.
In the Project tool window (View | Tool Windows | Project) , right-click the directory in which you want to create an SQL file and select New | File.
In the New File dialog, specify the filename with the SQL extension.
For better coding assistance, assign an SQL dialect to an SQL file. An SQL dialect is a DBMS-specific version of SQL.
PyCharm lets you specify the SQL dialect for an individual file or all SQL and DDL files that can be stored in a directory, in your project, or on your computer.
Click the dialect list, which is in the upper-right corner of the window.
Select a dialect from the dialect list.
Open settings by pressing CtrlAlt0S and navigate to Languages & Frameworks | SQL Dialects. .
Click the Add button and select directories or files for which you want to change a dialect.
Click Open.
Click the SQL Dialect cell and select the necessary dialect.
Apply changes and click OK.
