I would keep it. It looks nice. Algae growing doesn't mean anything, except that you have an ideal environment for it to grow (light and nutrient filled water). If it gets out of hand, then you will have to take steps to lower the nutrient levels (more frequent water changes, cutting back on feeding...).
You don't need any hermits or snails for your tank, unless you like to watch them. Many hermits kill snails out of instinct, so if you got both, you may only end up with hermits at the end anyway. Whatever you add must have food to sustain it.
