The setae are small spines which are projected from the body wall by muscles to act as anchors in the surface that the worm is moving along. The muscle can also retract the setae.
To better understand, after the earthworm has extended the front section of its body, it will project the setae in to the soil to hold it in place as it contracts to bring the back half of its body forward.
