take it to a shop & get it checked out properly. right away. your description is just not specific enough for anyone to be helpful with the problem, but whatever it is, you could be stranded a /long/ way from home.

Sounds like a heat shield on the exhaust. Cheap and simple. Drive forever with that.
BUT: Get a competent shop to check it out to confirm!
Honda and a few other automakers employ noise to alert driver of impending damage. 90% of the time it will lead to a serious failure. You could call to a service station. Use a wireless phone to troubleshoot it.
