The problem is that you are using find_element_by_xpath which return only one WebElement (which is not iterable), the find_elements_by_xpath return a list of WebElements.
Solution: replace find_element_by_xpath with find_elements_by_xpath

driver.get("https://www.google.co.in/")
list_links=driver.find_elements_by_tag_name('a')
for i in list_links:
print i.get_attribute('href')
