When you see a comparison using "like" or "as," you're looking at a simile. This one is comparing a person to a snake shedding its skin, so it's either talking about a person with very dry skin who is shedding - not likely, as that doesn't make a very nice mental image - or it's talking about someone changing the way a snake does when it sheds its skin. If a person were to "shed their skin," they might appear different, or act different, or maybe even think differently.
