Well, the argument can be made that Voldemort would have found out about the prophecy anyway from Peter. I really can't think how else Voldemort figure out the thing referred to a baby considering Snape missed the whole "will be born" part of it. But still...
And also, since he's Lily's blood, the wards would have worked for Snape as well as the Dursleys.
