It is always a good idea to use full path file location specs like:
rar_cmd = r"D:\Program Files\WinRAR\rar.exe a -idcdp %s %s" % (target,'
'.join(source))
..
Have not tested it, but I suppose it will do the job.

You can't cd to d:\Program Files\WinRAR and then call rar

You have to call rar with full path.

from subprocess import *
retcode = call([r'"D:\Program Files\WinRAR\rar.exe"', 'a', '-idcdp', target,
' '.join(source)])
if retcode == 0:
print "everything OK"

source = [r'e:\temp\code',r'e:\temp\domains']
target_dir = r'e:\temp\bak'
target = target_dir+time.strftime('%Y%m%d%H%M%S')+'.rar'
rar_cmd = "D:\\Progra~1\\WinRAR\\rar.exe a -idcdp %s %s" % (target,'
'.join(source))

if os.system(rar_cmd) == 0:
print 'Successful backup to',target
