How to best get id of message I just sent?

Hello, I'm kinda new to the reddit API. I'm using Python and PRAW. What I would like to achieve is to send a message and later catch a reply and act based upon it. I hoped message() would return the id of the message I just sent which I would store and later checked if this message got a reply. But apperently it does not return the id.

Is there a reliable way to get the Id of message I just sent? Or other way of achieving the desired functionality? One way I could achieve it would be to add some identifier to the subject or body of the message and search for it in my inbox to match the correct message but that seems really inconvinient. Surely there must be a better way I don't see!
