Having UK residence visa has no effect on whether you need or not need Schengen visa. Switzerland is now part of the Schengen zone and is implementing the Schengen visa system. Your nationality (or your citizenship) determines whether you need Schengen visa to travel to Switzerland. See the Related links for a list of countries whose nationals are required to have Schengen visa when traveling to Switzerland.
