Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of the raspberries with the water. Cook over medium heat until the berries release their juices, about 5 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with a few tablespoons of water until smooth. Stir into the berry mixture and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, around 3 minutes.
Add the sugar substitute, lemon juice, and salt to the saucepan. Stir well until combined.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and gently fold in the remaining 2 cups of raspberries.
Pour the raspberry filling into the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
Serve slices of the pie with unsweetened whipped cream if desired.
