Use 'se souvenir' with a reflexive pronoun (je me, tu te, il se...) and normally 'de' before a noun or pronoun (je me souviens de cette chanson). When followed by a clause, it can take 'que' (il se souvient que...). 'Se rappeler' is a close synonym but takes a direct object (Je me rappelle son nom, not *Je me rappelle de son nom). 'Se remémorer' is more formal and often used in writing.
