This means that the person wants to try doing this someday. In this case, they omitted saying “I” in the beginning which is still natural in a casual conversation. So, another way to say this would be “I may have to attempt this someday.” In this case, you can’t put may anywhere else in the sentence because it wouldn’t make sense.
