Hi,
Nicotine present in cigarettes is known to cause gastritis as it irritates the lining of the stomach. I feel that this is what is causing you to vomit. Try reducing the number of cigarettes you smoke. I am sure it will reduce the symptoms as well. Taking antacids and acid production lowering medicines like omeprazole etc will also help. If you do not do anything about it, you may end up having stomach ulcers. Please do not neglect this.
Best wishes.
