You can use an autocmd to set the filetype to html when opening a ".html.erb" file. This could have unwanted side effects for plugins that work for ".erb" files.

autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.html.erb set filetype=html

You can also load more than one set of snippets by using a dotted filetype:

autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.html.erb set filetype=html.eruby

See :help snippet-syntax in the snipMate help for more info.
