What you describe sounds like a atype of arrythmia- tachycardia or rapid heart rate. there are many causes of this- it may be an isolated event but can also recur. I encourage you to go to a cardiologist or to the ER if it recurs. Some causes of tachycardia include excessive caffeine consumption. medication side effects, structural or conductive heart defects, and hyperthyroidism.
