Well, due to an eye injury I had while attending forestry summer camp at college in 1998, I had to wear an eye patch for a short period of time. My friends that were with me when the injury occurred joked and told everyone that a snake had bit me in the eye (don't know where that story came from) and the nickname "Snake Eyes" came out.
No one really called me Snake Eyes after the patch came off, but I took the name and messed up the spelling to "snakeyez" to be a little more unique for an online handle.
