    There's something loose and rattling around under there and needs to be checked out. Otherwise, the next time you look back, there might be something on the ground. Happening mostly when you accelerate sounds like something attached to the engine, perhaps part of the exhaust system, or maybe a loose or broken engine mount.

    I'd definitely recommend a thorough inspection. Whatever is loose isn't going to fix itself, and when it comes off completely, you may be in for a much bigger repair bill.
