Snape only killed Dumbledore because Dumbledore asked him to so that the Elder wand wouldn't have a master.

Ever since Lord Voldemort threatened Lily Potter's life, Snape had been helping Dumbledore and the Order. When Lily died he agreed to protect Harry and continued to do so with Dumbledore's help even after the headmaster had died.
