It is a flying golden ball that is part of a wizards game called Quidditch. The seeker, one of the players on the quidditch team, tries to capture the snitch to end the game. The snitch is worth (i think) 150 points. Most commonly if you catch the snitch you win the game. The snitch is created in a way that when you touch it, it remembers you. So if there is a squabble about who got the snitch first, all you have to do is touch it and it will show the true winner.
The resurrection stone, one of the three Deathly Hallows, was hidden inside the snitch.
Albus Dumbledore hid the stone in the snitch knowing only Harry would be able to open it and retrive the stone. He charmed it so that it would open when Harry was about to die, allowing his parents, Remus and Sirius to stay with him and make it easier to go through with.
Near the end of the book, Harry finds out that he is supposed to die because he became a living Horcrux when Voldemort first tried to kill him, and in order for Voldemort to die Harry has to die first.
When he is walking to in the forest on his way to Voldemort, Harry takes the snitch out of his pocket and realizes that "I open at the close" means the snitch will open when Harry has to die. He speaks to the snitch and say "I am about to die" and it opens.
A golden snitch is never touched by anybody except the seeker who catches it. When that person catches it, the snitch remembers their touch which is called flesh memory. Dumbledore left Harry the first snitch he ever caught, which he didn't catch with his hand and instead almost swallowed, to ensure the Ministry wouldn't find the resurrection stone hidden inside.
When Harry did touch the snitch to his mouth the words "I open at the close" appeared and for the majority of book seven Harry couldn't figure out what this meant. However, as he walked through the forest towards Voldemort he realised it meant it would open as he approached death so he put the snitch to his mouth and told it that he was going to die. The snitch then opened and revealed the stone allowing Harry time with his parents, Sirius and Remus.
Harry's first Quidditch match ended rather abruptly and with a great deal of confusion after he caught the snitch in his mouth.
When Hermione was setting fire to Professor Snape's robes, she knocked over Professor Quirrell, breaking his eye contact and therefore the jinx that was trying to knock Harry off his broomstick. This allowed Harry to climb back onto his broom, where he immediately set off after the snitch he'd just seen. This sent him hurtling to the ground and he actually fell off the broom right after catching it.
By whispering to it- "I am about to die". This is because of the message it reveals when placed in Harrys mouth- I open at the close.
Harry spoke Parseltounge, the language of snakes, in front of the entrance. The Chamber was designed to be used by those who could talk to snakes.

It means that it will open at when Harry is facing death ('close' refers to 'end', and 'end' refers to death).
