Depends on the type of the "scream". Guinea pigs use sounds as a primary means of communication.

Common type of guinea pig sound is called wheeking(called also squealing, or whistling): it means anticipationand excitement, particularly about being fed, or in response to the presence of its owner.

Please check the guinea pig sounds page of the Guinea Pig Manual (in provided link) where you can identify the type of sound you are referring to.
