"Once saved always saved"?
It's a recent teaching.
No one can snatch you from the Father's hand. But you can certainly leave or fall out on your own.
It doesn't make sense that we have "free will" to accept or reject God, but the moment we accept, we lose our free will.
And yes I know, "if you're really saved, you will never leave". That makes sense. How can one know God and then later apostatize? But some people do. And the Scripture warns of this also (Hebrews 10, for one). The warning wouldn't be there if it was impossible.
If you can leave or fall out on your own...then you've snatched yourself. The bible says you can't be snatched.
If someone or something convinced you Christianity isn't for you that that person or thing snatched you...which you know the bible says can't be done.
Then again if you feel like you need to leave or walk away it's also possible you were never saved in the first place.
As to Heb 10, I'm quite sure which verse you are speaking of.
