It might be your wheel bearings. Jack the rear up and spin the wheel with
your hand. You should feel a resistance at one point while spinning the
wheel. That is a sign of a worn bearing. It's pretty easy to replace if
you have the right tools. Don't forget to chock the front wheels and
release the hand brake, before attempting this.
Good Luck!
