You train your apprentice at your own peril, because eventually when you run out of usefulness to the apprentice he's or she is going to kill you, become the Dark Lord of the Sith and find an apprentice.
And that's the ultimate goal for Ren, he wants to be like his Grandfather which means that he wants to be a Lord of the Sith.
So Snoke realizing that he's basically uncaged a tiger sends him on a path to confront Luke believing that chances are that Luke will kill the still unstable Ren. But Luke is killed and Ren realizing the betrayal returns to Snoke, betrays him and kills him and declares himself as the new Dark Lord of the Sith, or so he believes.
But as he rummages through Snoke's stuff he finds a pyramid shaped object thats incredibly powerful.
He activates it and a holographic figure in a robe appears.
"Hello my friend, clearly you are powerful enough to activate my holocron, which is a repository of all of my teachings concerning the Dark Side of the Force. You are chosen and worthy of accessing this secret knowledge as you try to ascend to the title of Dark Lord of the Sith.
I appear to you as a younger man, if you are viewing this I am long dead.
The Jedi gain power through understanding, the Sith gain understanding through power, this is the key difference.
I hope that as you learn you come to see me as your friend and your guide, I am the ultimate Dark Lord of the Sith, and at the same time, I ruled the Republic which became a vast and mighty Empire.
My name is Palpatine, but you can call me Darth Sidious"
At that point, Kylo begins to learn from the holocron and Palpatine, (maybe we get a rocky style montage, I kid)
But he begins to feel the presence of a greater dark power then his own and its getting closer and searching him out, its not Sith, its certainly not Jedi, but it literally feels like a black hole in the Dark Side.
Then at the end of the movie we get the reveal of the ultimate baddie.
