Two aspects to this question.
1. Cover your ass with some evidence.
Even a text conversation where you say "I had a good time last night" and the girl says "me too" shows an element of consent that will help you protect yourself from false accusations after consensual sex.
2. Protect your reputation.
I'm not quite sure how to do this in general, because each situation is different. I have been accused of shit too. Just point out the obvious facts to whomever brings it to your attention, and you should be fine. "We had consensual sex and now, eight months later, she is making false accusations. All I can say is that what happened was consensual and if there were any evidence to the contrary, she certainly could have presented it sooner instead of making a baseless accusation months after the fact." Also, don't publicize your exploits, because that can put some incentive on a girl to make accusations just to seem like she's not a slut.

Rape is not a girl having some drinks with you, making out with you, coming back to your room, and then having sex while somewhat tipsy. Anyone who argues otherwise is disempowering women from making their own choices.
Certainly, rape does sometimes happen when a girl is drunk. I once walked in on a guy taking the virginity of a female acquaintance while she was blacked-out drunk and half-asleep in a bed at a party. I got her out of that place pretty quick, and when I talked to the girl after taking her back to her house, she was aware that she had had sex earlier in the night, but thought it was with a different guy than the one who raped her while she was more or less unconscious. I actually wouldn't mind seeing guys like that get convicted, publicly shamed, and locked up.
