Well, I don't know. I would personally use snuck, but I have seen sneaked, especially in writing.

Rusty and LaGata's information is quite interesting. I would be interested in hearing more about how this irregular form was introduced. Was it an invented form that then caught on? It is normal that over time irregular verb are regularized in a language, but the opposite is not often true.
