The name you bought at Snapnames will be managed by a registrar. Snapnames will send you an email telling you which one registrar is managing your domain name, and the new registrar will also send you an email with your username and password to manage the domain.
Some of these registrars offer free forwarding, some don't. If you get a registrar that charges for forwarding and you don't want to pay, you can wait 60 days then transfer the domain to a registrar of your choice, such as godaddy or moniker.
