Not really: If you are stressed and yelled hard. Your increased your head pressure which caused a small blood vessel to burst. When we strain our body, sneeze, cough, or trauma it may cause it. Make sure check your blood pressure, sometimes high blood pressure can cause it too.

Broken blood vessel: It sounds like subconjunctival hemorrhage. It can be brought on by actions such as straining causing increased pressure in your outer blood vessels. Not harmful to your eye, however, probably better to lead a less stressful life--I know easier said than done....
