Add these lines after “face eth0 inet dhcp”:

   auto eth0:1
   iface eth0:1 inet static
     address 192.168.0.199
     netmask 255.255.255.0
     gateway 192.168.0.1

Save and quit, ctl+o, Return, ctl+x.

In Raspbian Wheezy:

$ sudo service dhcpcd stop
$ sudo update-rc.d -f dhcpcd remove

In Raspbian Jessie:

$ sudo service dhcpcd stop
$ sudo systemctl disable dhcpcd
