SNMP is not designed (in general) to give X-per-second counts.
As John has indicated, there are several MIB objects within
the ifTable that count the number of packets sent or received
on a particular network interface.
   To get "packets-per-second" information, you should sample
these counters *twice*, and look at the difference between
the two readings.  Dividing this delta by the length of time
between the two readings will give you the "pkt/sec" rate.
