I'm not sure which colorscheme you're using, but I created my own
(based on an existing one) and set the colors I wanted in it. So you
would have something like

  hi Search term=reverse ctermbg=yellow ctermfg=black guibg=yellow guifgi=black

adjusting your colors as you see fit (I believe the default is
black-on-yellow).
