The 18-year-old has come through the academy and has recently been handed plenty of first-team playing time under new boss Ralph Hasenhuttl.
Obafemi made his senior debut for Southampton at home to Tottenham Hotspur at just 17-years-old - and became the second youngest player to feature in the Premier League.
"It's a good day," Obafemi told the club's official website. "I'm happy that it's done and now I'm looking to move forward.
"I'll always be thankful to the club for sticking by me, and I just want to show everyone what I've got.
"I'm determined to show the fans and everyone at the club why I've been given a three-and-a-half year deal."
His boss Hasenhuttl also commented: "Young players like Michael represent a big part of the future at Southampton, so this is an important day for him and also the club.
"Already, he has shown to me he can have a big impact in our games and, with the right guidance and also with the right approach from him, I think this influence will increase.
"This is a big day for Michael, but I think what is most important now is that he realises this is the start for him, and that he must use this as a base to make the next steps in his development.
"There is still a great amount of potential for Michael to fulfil and a lot for him to achieve, and this is the best place for him to do it, so he must focus on working as hard and professionally as possible to make sure he becomes the player I believe he can be."
