If you have Auto-Save turned on, then After Effects saves files as you work.

And use the most important keyboard shortcut in the entire application often:
(Win) Ctrl-S
(Mac) Cmd-S
And just as useful, is to use the Increment & Save feature when you've reached a mini-goal in your project. If your project file then gets corrupted, you can still go back to your previous major step.
It sucks, but you won't be forgetting to save again. :o)
Good luck with your project,
